There are numerous Android apps that have been downloaded over one million times from the Google Play app store and it was reported in February 2017 that over 169 apps have been downloaded at least 100 million times and over 2,392 apps have been downloaded at least ten million times; the barrier for entry on this list is set at 100 million for free apps to limit its size.[1] Many of the applications in this list are distributed pre-installed on top-selling Android devices[2] and may be considered bloatware by some people because users did not actively choose to download them.[3]
